Integral equations of a cohesive zone model for history-dependent materials and their numerical solution [PDF]
A nonlinear history-dependent cohesive zone (CZ) model of quasi-static crack propagation in linear elastic and viscoelastic materials is presented. The viscoelasticity is described by a linear Volterra integral operator in time.

Fatigue crack propagation in microcapsule toughened epoxy [PDF]
The addition of liquid-filled urea-formaldehyde (UF) microcapsules to an epoxy matrix leads to significant reduction in fatigue crack growth rate and corresponding increase in fatigue life.

Crack propagation in viscoelastic solids [PDF]
We study crack propagation in a viscoelastic solid. Using simple arguments, we derive equations for the velocity dependence of the crack-tip radius, a (v) , and for the energy per unit area to propagate the crack, G (v) . For a viscoelastic modulus E (omega) which increases as omega(1-s) (0< s< 1) in the transition region between the rubbery region and

Local dynamics of a randomly pinned crack front during creep and forced propagation: An experimental study [PDF]
We have studied the propagation of a crack front along the heterogeneous weak plane of a transparent poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) block using two different loading conditions: imposed constant velocity and creep relaxation.

Numerical investigation on the prefabricated crack propagation of FV520B stainless steel
FV520B is a common stainless steel for manufacturing centrifugal compressor impeller and shaft. The internal metal flaw destroys the continuity of the material matrix, resulting in the crack propagation fracture of the component, which seriously reduces ...

Influence of woven ply degradation on fatigue crack growth in thin notched composites under tensile loading [PDF]
This paper deals with the fatigue of the through the-thickness crack propagation in thin notched composite laminates made of two glass woven plies. It highlights the different crack growths between warp and weft directions of the woven ply.

Some exact results for the velocity of cracks propagating in non-linear elastic models
We analyze a piece-wise linear elastic model for the propagation of a crack in a stripe geometry under mode III conditions, in the absence of dissipation.

To overcome the limitation of constant Poisson’s ratio in bond-based peridynamics, an ordinary state-based peridynamic (OSB PD) model was applied to simulate dynamic crack propagation in Kalthoff–Winkler specimen subjected to a low velocity impact.
